Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of crane boom rotation lubrication, in particular to a boom hinge device capable of reducing the volume of an oil chamber. Background Art

[0002] It is well known that the jib of a gantry crane installed on a support is rotatably mounted on a hinge shaft through two bearings in order to ensure the stability of the swing and the strength of the connection. When lubricating the bearings, if oil is injected from the outer end face of the bearing like the bearing oiler disclosed in the public number CN201753731U, it is necessary to inject oil into the outer end faces of the two bearings at the same time, which is very inconvenient. In addition, since there is a large space between the two bearings, if the lubricating oil cannot be replaced in time, it will be squeezed and solidified, and it will also cause blockage, which will not only waste the lubricating oil but also reduce the lubrication effect of the bearings. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome the deficiencies in the background technology and solve existing technical problems, the utility model discloses an arm hinge device with a reduced oil chamber volume, which can not only improve the convenience and uniformity of oil injection, but also avoid lubricating oil blockage, failure and waste.

[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0005] A boom hinge device for reducing the volume of an oil chamber comprises a boom hinge sleeve, a support and a hinge shaft with both ends fixed to the support, the middle shaft body of the hinge shaft being sleeved with a shaft sleeve, the boom hinge sleeve being rotatably sleeved on the shaft sleeve through two spaced-apart bearings; a positioning outer cylinder adapted to be inserted into the inner sleeve wall of the boom hinge sleeve is provided between the two bearings, the two ends of the positioning outer cylinder respectively abut against the outer rings of the two bearings, the inner cylinder wall of the positioning outer cylinder is raised to form a convex ring portion, a first gap is left between the inner ring surface of the convex ring portion and the shaft sleeve, a second gap is left between the two ends of the convex ring portion and the corresponding bearings, and an oil filling hole is provided on the end face of the hinge shaft which is connected to the center of the first gap.

[0006] Furthermore, the convex ring portion includes an inner tube and two supporting ring plates, the inner ring surfaces of the two supporting ring plates are sealed and fixed to both ends of the outer tube wall of the inner tube, and the outer ring surfaces of the two supporting ring plates are sealed and fixed to the inner tube wall of the positioning outer tube.

[0007] Furthermore, an annular groove is provided in the center of the inner sleeve wall of the shaft sleeve, and a plurality of through holes connected to the first gap are evenly arranged on the bottom of the annular groove. The inner end of the oil filling hole is connected to the annular groove through a radial hole.

[0008] Furthermore, the end surface of the arm hinge sleeve is installed with an end cover corresponding to the outer ring of the corresponding bearing, and the middle part of the outer wall of the sleeve is provided with a boss corresponding to the inner rings of the two bearings.

[0009] Furthermore, the first gap is less than 3 mm, and the second gap is 2 to 4 mm.

[0010] Furthermore, an oil nozzle is installed at the outer end of the oil filling hole.

[0011] Due to the adoption of the above-mentioned technical solution, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] The boom hinge device with reduced oil chamber volume disclosed by the utility model can directly inject oil into the middle of the two bearings through the oil injection hole on the end face of the hinge shaft, which is convenient and quick. Due to the symmetrical relationship between the two bearings, it can also ensure that the lubricating oil is injected evenly. Moreover, because the convex ring portion occupies the oil chamber volume, the injected lubricating oil can quickly reach the bearings on both sides, realizing lubrication of the bearings by the lubricating oil. During the flow and replacement process of the lubricating oil, there is no backlog, solidification or blockage, which greatly improves the lubrication effect and reduces waste.

[0017] Combined with attachment Figure 1-2 The boom hinge device for reducing the volume of the oil chamber comprises a boom hinge sleeve 1, a support 8, and a hinge shaft 6 fixed to the support 8 at both ends. The middle shaft body of the hinge shaft 6 is fitted with a shaft sleeve 5. The boom hinge sleeve 1 is rotatably fitted on the shaft sleeve 5 via two spaced-apart bearings 4. As needed, an end cover 3 is mounted on the end face of the boom hinge sleeve 1, which contacts the outer rings of the corresponding bearings 4. A shoulder is provided in the middle of the outer wall of the shaft sleeve 5, which contacts the inner rings of the two bearings 4. The two bearings 4 are axially positioned by the shoulder and the end cover 3.

[0018] A positioning outer cylinder 2 is provided between the two bearings 4, which is adapted to be inserted into the inner sleeve wall of the arm hinge sleeve 1, so that the positioning outer cylinder 2 can rotate together with the arm hinge sleeve 1, and the two ends of the positioning outer cylinder 2 are respectively in contact with the outer rings of the two bearings 4. The positioning outer cylinder 2 can also axially position the bearings 4. The inner cylinder wall of the positioning outer cylinder 2 is raised to form a convex ring part. In order to ensure stable and balanced support, there is generally a certain distance between the two bearings 4. The convex ring part is used to occupy the space between the two bearings 4, thereby preventing excessive retention of lubricating oil; according to needs, the convex ring part includes an inner cylinder 11 and two supporting ring plates 12, and the inner ring surfaces of the two supporting ring plates 12 are aligned with the outer ring surfaces of the inner cylinder 11 The two ends of the cylinder wall are sealed and fixed, and the outer ring surfaces of the two support ring plates 12 are sealed and fixed to the inner cylinder wall of the positioning outer cylinder 2. Of course, in order to ensure the supporting effect, another support ring plate 12 can be set between the two support ring plates 12 for supporting connection, so as to ensure that the entire structure is light in weight and has high strength. A first gap 9 is left between the inner ring surface of the convex ring part and the shaft sleeve 5, and a second gap 10 is left between the two ends of the convex ring part and the corresponding bearing 4. Lubricating oil can flow through the first gap 9 and the second gap 10 for lubrication. In addition, the first gap 9 is less than 3 mm, generally set to 2 mm, and the second gap 10 is 2 to 4 mm, generally set to 3 mm.

[0019] The end face of the hinge shaft 6 is provided with an oil filling hole 601 connected to the center of the first gap 9; specifically, an annular groove 501 is provided in the center of the inner sleeve wall of the shaft sleeve 5, and the bottom of the annular groove 501 is evenly provided with multiple through holes connected to the first gap 9. The inner end of the oil filling hole 601 is connected to the annular groove 501 through a radial hole, so that the lubricating oil injected from the oil filling hole 601 can enter the first gap 9 evenly; in addition, an oil nozzle 7 is installed at the outer end of the oil filling hole 601 to facilitate the oil filling operation through the oil nozzle 7.

[0020] In the arm hinge device for reducing the volume of the oil chamber described in the present invention, after the lubricating oil is injected through the oil filling hole 601, it flows through the radial holes, the annular groove 501 and the through hole, enters the center of the first gap 9, and continues to flow to both ends, respectively entering the two second gaps 10, thereby evenly lubricating the two bearings. During the flow and replacement process of the lubricating oil, there is no accumulation, solidification or blockage, thereby improving the lubrication effect and reducing waste.
